Are you an executive who wants to help with sales but doesn’t know where to begin? Do you sometimes make connections for the sales team or get involved in sales calls? Are you wondering how to effectively invest some time in business development without getting caught up in the small details?
If these questions resonate with you, come participate in an interactive discussion with our panel of experts who will focus in three areas:
- Building and leveraging your network
- Utilizing the power of PR and branding
- Staying cutting edge with social media

You’ll also have the opportunity to meet and network with other executives from a variety of industries.
